Artium Technologies

Artium Technologies, Inc. is a company based in Sunnyvale, California. It develops and makes instruments that measure sprays, clouds and aerosol droplets. The company was started to build advanced instruments for energy and environmental uses.

Its products include Phase Doppler Interferometers, Inkjet Droplet Measurement Instruments, Particle Imaging Systems, Laser Doppler Velocimeters and Laser Induced Incandescence instruments. These tools measure droplet size, droplet velocity and particle shape.

The company has also built flight probes. They use the phase Doppler method and multi-beam imaging, and the site says patents are pending. The probes are meant for monitoring clouds in the atmosphere and for research into aircraft icing.

The site names William D. Bachalo as President and CEO. He earlier founded Aerometrics, Inc. and invented the Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer. The co-founders and senior staff are described as having deep experience in optical instruments, covering both hardware and software.

The company says its design approach is built on steady improvement and on listening to customers. The name Artium comes from a Latin phrase that means necessity is the mother of invention.
